When it comes to illegals slipping across the border by the millions (about 6.5 million to date) the federal government fails us, but when it comes to closing our parks, national monuments and beaches they can find cops to throw up the baracades and keep us out before you can say, sequestration.
Maybe it is just practice for when the Fed’s finally do something positive about preventing the illegals MIGRATING season. Which is all year round.
Anyway, tongue in cheek, sadly, it’s a start!
Well, a park is easier to keep closed than a gigantic border. Duh.
Look, I understand why the guys who work for Breitbart or the Daily Caller say things like this–they get paid to pretend to be this stupid. I really don’t understand why you do it.
It’s too bad we can’t Jack to come out of his hidey-hole (“illegals”) and talk about what’s really bothering him, because he’s got a lot of company, at least 60 members of the House of Representatives; Confederates, most of them.
They’re ensconsed in gerrymandered districts, impervious to threats to their campaign funding, and absolutely determined to take their country back from that Brown Boy in the White House … Obama embodying everything liberally multi-cultural. (which is quite ironic in that he isn’t really much of a liberal).
It’s a little scary, actually. I hope those exempted fellows in the Treasury Department are paying attention.
Wow Jack! That is one dang “hidey-hole” you live in.
Funny how an anonymous toxic twit can go on about that. Thanks to al-Libby for that laugh. It made my day.
That white African American human being in the White House is choosing to disregard and change our nations immigration laws without going through the legislative process. A bit of criticism and cynical humor for this double failure in leadership is warranted.
Those more dedicated to redistribution than patriotism, freedom, citizenship or respect for the rule of law will never understand why someone would do this on a volunteer basis. Paying for things themselves is a foreign concept.
Rule #12…now that takes intelligence and wit.
More proof that Republicans built this shutdown: It has now come out that hours before the shutdown, Republicans quietly passed a rule change so that only House Majority Leader Eric Cantor could bring a clean CR bill to the House for a vote. Previously, any member of the House could have brought the bill up for a vote. As even other Republicans have pointed out, the House has the votes to pass a clean CR bill. But that doesn’t matter, because only one man has the power to bring the bill to the floor. That is reprehensible and should outrage all Americans regardless of political party. One man should not have the power to totally block the normal legislative process. If a bill has the votes to pass, the House should be allowed to vote on it without having to wait for Cantor’s permission. The government has been shut down for two weeks, 800,000 people have been laid off, and funding has been cut to national parks, WIC, the NIH, and other importance services just because of the whims of one man. We could have ended this already, but Cantor and the extremist wing of the Republican party aren’t willing to admit reality. They’ve lost this battle, badly–Congressional Republicans’ approval ratings are at their lowest ever, not because of “media bias,” but because Republicans engineered this pointless crisis over demands that had no realistic chance of being met.
Interesting…the biggest point of contention is Obamacare. How was Obamacare passed by the super majority Democrat Congress?
Heartland
Harry Reid uses such tactics in the Senate all the time…see Commentary here and here:
I think there is plenty of room to hold Democrats accountable for the mess in Washington and not just for this mess but for the mess in the country.
We know people from both sides hold Republicans accountable.
Who will hold Democrats accountable? Anybody?
